Study Details: PGCE Full Time: within 1 year.
This course specifically trains teachers wanting to teach maths (numeracy) in education and training sector educational settings, such as further education colleges, and adult and community settings.
For students who are following the specialist maths (numeracy) route an additional subject knowledge enhancement module is completed alongside the generic PGCE Education and Training modules. This module will ensure that you are fully conversant with the expectations of teaching maths (numeracy) within a range of education and training contexts. It will include enquiry-based learning tasks and ensure that you experience the assessment of maths (numeracy) from the perspective of your students in order to inform your practice as a teacher.
This course has been developed to embed The Professional Standards for Teachers and Trainers in Education and Training, and it combines academic study with substantial placement experience and observation of practice. It is designed to develop your knowledge and skills and enable you to fully meet the professional standards of the sector. This one year full-time programme comprises five modules across four key strands (professional skills, research, theory and specialist knowledge). These are delivered across the year to allow understanding, skills and practical application to take place over time. The strands of the programme are delivered concurrently to ensure that you make explicit links between all aspects of your learning.
